Still jealous of Mundine Sally!!!!
Just cause he wont date a tramp like you!!! Mundine is the man and your nobody!!! Dont be a hater all your life, love him or hate him you have to admit he is pure class in the ring!! Of course he is going to claim he is the best, most boxers at his level do!!! Get with it!! |

I was talking about all round athlete, not any achieve,ments in just one sport. Obviously he wasnt the best League player, and obviously he isnt our best boxer, but to achieve such heights in 2 completely different sports holds him pretty damm high.

Do some research? How about u read properly. How are those u menion better ALL ROUND athletes? They excelled at one sport and one sport only. How about u do some research, Mundine WAS a legitimate World champion. Ottke retired rather than face him, and when he did, that left Mundine the sole WBA World Champ.

Exactly. Mundine was very good at 2 sports (rugby league & boxing) at a high level, but was NOT elite at either of these 2 sports. Funny you should mention Hagler/Hearns. Imagine how petrified Mundine would be if he were in that famous fight against either of those 2 greats. It would be like a grown man teeing off on a scared little boy.

Being a former world champ and being consistantly rated in the top 5 in the world makes u world class u fool. And if u play origin, i would consider u one of the elite players in the game at the time. |

Craig made his international league debut in the First Test in Sydney on 18 June 1910. He played in both rugby league Tests against Great Britain in Australia in 1910 and was selected on the 1911 [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] tour of Great Britain. He played 31 tour matches and scored 7 tries. He played at second row in all three victorious Tests of the tour.

Born in [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Hawke quickly developed as a natural all-round sportsman who excelled in cricket, football and golf and made his senior Australian rules football debut for [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] (SANFL) club [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] in August 1957. Hawke stamped himself as a future champion when in his third game he kicked 15 goals for Port against [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] before being surprisingly dropped two weeks later.

Previously, the drop punt was only used over short distances on wet days but Hawke's innovation was said to have revolutionised the game in Western Australia. Fresh from his success on the football field, Hawke also made an impact on the cricket field as a medium-fast swing bowler with an unusual "crab-like'" action, a capable lower-order batsman and a sound fieldsman. He became the first (and still the only) person to have represented both South Australia and Western Australia in Australian Rules football and cricket. His cricket also developed enough for him to make his Test debut on 15 February 1963 in the Fifth [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] against [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] at the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], scoring 14 and recording match figures of 2/89.
